Camping with doggos

We had a lovely stay here! A few trees in the campground help provide shade and privacy, the compost toilet was clean and the hospitality was great! Within 30mins to Lake Eppalock, so close to Heathcote - it's hard to find camps that aren't in a caravan park in this area ! Thank you for a great stay- we'll be back to try those free range eggs!

Secluded Bush Paradise

John's Hipcamp was azmaing! The site was very private and surrounded by bush, you definitely feel amongst nature there with all the wildlife and scenery. Check-in was perfect and John was extremely friendly, helpful and accomodating! I would absolutely recommend this place to anyone & have already passed this onto many friends to stay here as well!

Loved it

Awesome place to get out with kids and pets, John and Cindy were absolutely lovely and checked in a few times to make sure all was going well. Nice soft green grass for tent camping, good spacing between sites and Phil who helps with the camp maintenance was an absolute gem. Will definitely be back 😊
